Mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody against human, chimpanzee CD3, PE-conjugated.

• T cells

The UCHT1 antibody reacts with the ~20 kDa CD3ε subunit of the human T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex, which is expressed on the surface of ~95% of mature T cells and NKT cells, and variably on thymocytes. A majority of T cell neoplasms also express CD3. The CD3 complex, which is assembled from combinations of CD3γ, δ, ε, η, and ζ subunits, associates non-covalently with the TCR and is involved in transducing antigen recognition signals into the cytoplasm of T cells and in regulating the cell surface expression of the TCR. Activation of T cells by the TCR involves the cytoplasmic tails of the CD3 subunits, which are structurally related type 1 transmembrane proteins and members of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Mutations in the CD3 subunits have been associated with various immunodeficiency disorders including severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). This antibody clone has been verified for purity assessments of cells isolated with EasySep™ kits, including EasySep™ Direct Human T Cell Isolation Kit (Catalog #19661), EasySep™ Human CD3 Positive Selection Kit II (Catalog #17851; partial blocking may be observed), EasySep™ HLA Whole Blood T Cell Enrichment Kit (Catalog #19951HLA) and EasySep™ HLA Whole Blood CD2 Positive Selection Kit (Catalog #18687HLA).
